Chapter 41: Preparation
"I don't care how long you talk about the rest of the time, but now there are hundreds of 'horse bandits' disguised by elite cavalry outside the town, shouldn't you hurry up and get down to business now? If you think it doesn't matter, I don't mind handing you over to the 'horse bandits' outside, saving trouble!"
"I'm sorry Laddy, I was wrong, but we're in the same boat now, and Pande and Barron are important forces on our side, so I'll talk to them about some basic things first. Heather knew that now was not the time to catch up, but there were some things that Barron didn't know and needed him to explain.
"Damn bastard, I'm not in the same boat as you, hurry up, we don't have time, I hope I made the right choice this time!" said Laddy and sat down in his chair alone.
"Your choice will definitely not be wrong, although our opponents are all the nobles of the powerful territories in the north, but we have people who support us whether it is in Curtain City or Scandan Province, and even the king has heavyweights to support us, so Sir Laddy, you don't have to worry about defeat at all. ”
Although Pande didn't know how Heather and Mrs. Celli had pulled this mayor of Radi into their camp, it was essential to reveal a little bit of true or false news to increase his confidence, as for whether there were really big people in the royal capital to support them?
The fuck only knows!
"Hmph, I hope so, if it hadn't been ...... Forget it, I paid such a big price this time, took such a big risk, and dragged the entire Yezi town into danger, I hope you can solve it. Lardy pouted.
Lardy then stopped talking, and Heather began to tell Pander and Barron about what had happened during this time, and Pander and Barron began to share their experiences interspersed.
After Heather's brief introduction, Barron finally understood that Heather and Mrs. Cellly in front of him were one of the three caravans newly formed by Old Johnny, but in order to avoid the excavation of those who were interested, some means were specially used to cover it up.
For example, Heather was originally the deacon of the Johnny Chamber of Commerce, if you put it in Barron's previous life, the old Johnny is the chairman of the Johnny Chamber of Commerce, and Heather is the CEO of the Johnny Chamber of Commerce, although it may not be particularly accurate, but the actual situation is about the same, and Heather also cooperated with Old Johnny to play a bitter trick in order to establish the Heather Chamber of Commerce, so that the entire Maple Leaf City knew that the Heather Chamber of Commerce and the Johnny Chamber of Commerce were mortal enemies, but in fact, the Johnny Chamber of Commerce gave a lot of support to the Heather Chamber of Commerce in private.
As for Mrs. Cellly's Celli Chamber of Commerce, it was originally a medium-sized chamber of commerce in Marston City, but unfortunately because of the sudden death of the former elder Celli 2 years ago, the Celli Chamber of Commerce was attacked by many previous opponents.
It was also at that time that Old Jonny secretly made a move, and after ensuring the management authority of the Celli family for the Celli Chamber of Commerce, he became the first owner of the Celli Chamber of Commerce in exchange for 40% of the ownership of the Celli Chamber of Commerce in exchange for a large sum of money, and Mrs. Celli and her son together had less than 30% ownership of the Celli Chamber of Commerce.
Originally, I thought that no one knew the true relationship between the two families and the Jonny Chamber of Commerce, so although the three caravans had a reminder from Old Jonny, after hitting the road, the three caravans ignored the danger.
By the time the first caravan was wiped out by Harold's private soldier, the Golden Lion Battalion, in fact, the cavalry of the Golden Lion Battalion was fully capable of eating the remaining two caravans together.
However, after the enemy severely damaged the escort force of the remaining two caravans, he pretended to be insufficient, let Heather and Celli escape, and drove them all the way to Yez Town, and after Yezi Town sent the first wave of helpers, the cavalry of the Golden Lion Battalion laid down layers of guards, completely cutting off Yezi Town's contact with the outside world, in order to lure Pande and his escort team of the Jonny Chamber of Commerce out to solve it together.
In the end, as they wished, Pan De and the escort team were indeed led out of the Curtain City, and they were successfully intercepted.
It's a pity that because of the 'Silver Wolf' Andrea and the 'Greedy One' Sham, either because of merit or because of personal grievances, Andrea's attack was too early, and the Sham cavalry squadron in charge of maneuvering came late for unknown reasons, and there was a time lag between the two.
In the end, there was a loophole in the encirclement, which was directly broken by Barron and others, and also took the life of the junior knight Andrea. However, the convoy suffered most of the casualties as a result, and less than a third survived, but it was quite good compared to three caravans.
Not to mention the caravan that was completely destroyed, it was what happened to Heather and Mrs. Cellly's caravan, which also made Heather bitter when he talked to Pande and Barron.
"When we arrived at Yez, we found that the cavalry disguised as horse bandits were not attacking, but had suddenly blocked all three entrances and exits of Yez, and Mrs. Celli and I thought we might as well be the bait. ”
"But at that time, Mrs. Celli and I had suffered heavy losses in our caravans, almost all the mercenaries we hired were wiped out, and even the guys in the caravan were suffering heavy losses, and we didn't know when we would call for help, or even if there were reinforcements. ”
"It just so happened that there was a small mercenary group in Yezi Town that had just finished its mission, and we had to spend a lot of money to recruit this mercenary group again, plus some lone mercenaries, and finally gathered the caravan's escort force. Then we recruited some more honest men in the town to supplement the caravan, but these people and the original men of the caravan added up to less than a hundred. ”
"Finally we found Raddy, and through him convinced the town that we had accidentally encountered the horse bandits who were preparing to attack Yez Town, rather than the culprit who had attracted them, so that we could use the strength of the caravan that was also besieged in Yez Town. ”
"Damn bastard, you didn't say you were facing Earl Harold's private soldiers, you only told me that it was an ordinary horse bandit and I helped you hide it! Damn!" Raddie suddenly spoke up, and it was obvious that the bastard he was talking about was Heather.
"But you've already gotten 50 gold coins, haven't you? And that's just a deposit, as long as we hold Yez Town, you will not only get enough gold, but you will also get the support of the Johnny Chamber of Commerce, and even with the merit of repelling the attack of a large number of horse bandits, maybe you can even upgrade the knighthood, what do you say, Sir Lardy?" Heather was not worried that Raddy would regret it.
